Experience old craftsmanship
We have been producing candles since 1703. We would be delighted to give you an insight into this fascinating traditional craft. Welcomed by the scent of wax, you can visit our candle factory and learn lots of interesting facts about candles.

These public tours are free of charge and last approximately 30 minutes.
